Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Cu(In 1−x Ga x )Se 2 (CIGS) thin films were prepared using a single quaternary target by RF magnetron sputtering. The effects of deposition parameters on the structural, compositional and electrical properties of the films were examined in order to develop the deposition process without post-deposition selenization. From X-ray diffraction analysis, as the substrate temperature and Ar pressure increased and RF power decreased, the crystallinity of the films improved. The scanning electron microscopy revealed that the grains became uniform and circular shape with columnar structure with increasing the substrate temperature and Ar pressure, and decreasing the RF power. The carrier concentration of CIGS films deposited at the substrate temperature of 500 °C was 2.1 × 10 17 cm −3 and the resistivity was 27 Ω cm. At the substrate temperature above 500 °C, In and Se contents in CIGS films decreased due to the evaporation and it led to the deterioration of crystallinity. It was confirmed that CIGS thin films deposited at optimal condition had similar atomic ratio to the target value even without post-deposition selenization process.
